Jasna Nickells | 116 comments Don't read it if you don't like steamy romance sort of thing. But I love it.


Capricious_Reads Two come to mind:
1. The Miss Peregrine series (third one due to come out 2015)
2. Flowers in the Attic series


Sandysbookaday (taking a midwinter break) (sandyj21) Richard Montanaris Byrne & Balzano series.....am half way through them. Riveting.


Sandysbookaday (taking a midwinter break) (sandyj21) Please try them Kara if you like fairly graphic crime thriller/mysteries.

Kim (kcm6868) | 14 comments I love series or individuals. My one series is, the "lords of..." series. Its by K.R. Richards. (Lord of the abbey is book 1). There is some steamy scenes, but the series is good. Book 4 just came out.


Brittain *Needs a Nap and a Drink* (bwilliams2013) Anything by C.L. Stone is addictive for me and it isn't because they are good books. The Ghost Bird series has a weak female lead and is so cringe inducing it makes me blush...but she has a treasure trove of book boyfriends. Literally every single stereotype and it is glorious.

Tanya | 81 comments I like The ghost bird series as well Brittain. Although I didn't really enjoy the other series.....Thief I think the book was called.



I have a couple of series that I love. One would be Fallen crest series by Tijan. She is a self publish author. You can't help but fall in love with her characters. Another Is Charley Davidson series by Darynda Jones, I am guaranteed a good laugh when I read her books.

Sandysbookaday (taking a midwinter break) (sandyj21) The Paying Guests The Paying Guests by Sarah Waters

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


London 1922. The colourless and impoverished Mrs Wray and her defeated daughter Frances are forced to take in "paying guests" following the death of Mr Wray and the revelation that he had made bad investments. There is no money, no servants, and no joy in this house.
The thoroughly modern young couple, Lil and Len Barber, move in upstairs with their gramophone, an eclectic mix of belongings, Lil's beautiful clothes, and her slapdash housekeeping routines.
Slowly, Frances is drawn to Lilian, much as a moth to a light, with disastrous consequences.
There were times, when i was reading this book, that the tension was so great, I found myself not breathing!
I thoroughly recommend The Paying Guests.

Jasna Nickells | 116 comments I'm sorry but I disagree. I hated the Marked series


message 15: by Jasna (new)

Jasna Nickells | 116 comments yeah, I'm not going to disagree with that. It's my opinion. I just saying I would not recommend that series. Its too confusing and I think the author got confused too. Plus the heroine is rewarded too much.

Dustin Stephen King's Dark Tower series and George R.R. Martin's A Song of Ice and Fire!!!!

Awesome! You can't go wrong with either series.:)


message 19: by Pao (new)

Pao | 5 comments I'm also a fan of The Ghost Bird series like Brittain and Tanya, and I love the Scarab Beetle as well :). I found the first book on Netgalley a little over a year ago and I've been hooked since then.

I agree with everyone about A Song of Ice and Fire series, I plan on start tomorrow A Storm of Swords ;).


Sandysbookaday (taking a midwinter break) (sandyj21) NOS4A2 NOS4A2 by Joe Hill

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


If I could give this book 6 stars I would!

This has to be the best book I have read in 2014 (sorry to Neil Gaiman's The Ocean at the End of the Lane - you've just been bumped into 2nd place!). I want to never let this book go.

I found myself cheering on Vic in her fight against Charles Manx, feeling her pain when her son Wayne was in danger..... This book sucked me right in and I felt for it's characters.

Joe Hill is definitely his father's son......but I think that here he may even have out written Stephen King. if you are a Stephen King/Neil Gaiman fan, this is a book you have to read.
